• Hi guys, I’m having a slight problem with my columns overflowing their content from the left column into the right and visa versa.

    I could solve this problem by making sure the content I post doesn’t exceed the width of around 560 pixels but this would take some time and effort for each post, is there an easier way to fix this problem, i.e. automatically crating a new line when my text reaches a certain limit?

    Here’s a visual explanation.

    Being nearly code illiterate I can’t seem to figure out how to fix this problem.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, Pete.

  • You can use the word-wrap CSS property for that purpose:

    Also, if it doesn’t work for old browsers (IE 6/7) you can do overflow: auto; to the div for horizontal scrollbar when it does happen (not recommended, but I haven’t seen many reasons to have this more than once a few hundred posts).
